Omarosa: I secretly taped my firing from the Trump White House to 'protect myself'

During the interview, Manigault Newman called President Trump a “con,” a "liar" and a “racist,” doubling down on her claim that the current administration does not care about African-Americans. Manigault Newman acknowledged she was "complicit" while defending President Donald Trump in the past.

Family of Richard Russell, who stole airliner and crashed it, say they are 'stunned and heartbroken'

The family of a man who authorities say stole an airplane from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on Friday and died when he later crashed the aircraft said they were "stunned and heartbroken" and called him "a warm and compassionate man." Authorities don't know why he took the plane, but he could be heard on audio recordings telling air traffic controllers that he is "just a broken guy." The 29-year-old worked for Horizon Air, helping to handle luggage and tow aircraft. Authorities say he had worked Friday and was in uniform when he got into the cockpit of a Horizon Air Bombardier Q400 plane and took off.
